CHICAGO, March 3l.-When the nom
mating committee assembled this evening
Carter Harrison entered the room alone.
After hearing the committees report,
which was to the effect that they could
find no one to champion the cause of the
Democracy, Harrison arose and declined
the nomination outright, but before re-
Stunning his seat he said that if the Repub-
leans would withdraw Roche and put on
their ticket Carter Harrison, he would
beat Nelson by 1000 votes, and thus
save the city from a Socialist mayor, as
the papers chose to style him.
you canno ask Harrison to lead a for
lorn hope cried the mayor. when
Harrison runs, he runs TO win, but not to
elect Mr.. Roche. If the citizens of Chi
cago, irrespective of party, should say to
him to run he would do So.
Harrison then left the room. A mem
Der of the committee then moved the APP
pointment OF an executive committee of
five to confer with representatives of the
citizens organization, should one develop.
The motion was carried and the Dcmoc-
racy adjourned sine die.

The Loss of the Eagle.

BosToN, March 3l.-A special to the
Journal from st. Johns, N. f., says: The
steamer Eagle was last seen by the steamer
Aurora on the night of the 18th instant,
near Funk's island. A terrible sea was
running at the time. The next morning
the Aurora could find no trace of the
Eagle, and nothing has been seen of the
illfated vessel since. A message from
Grecupond. about 100 miles from here,
says that Lighthouse Keeper Cabot had
boarded the sealing steamers Vanguard
and Hector. Both of those vessels are
reported passing some spars and a fore
castle, with the name Eagle" near the
spot where she was last seen. Lighthouse
Keeper Corbet is a reliable man, and
from his knowledge of affairs there and
the fact that the Eagle has not been seen
since the 1lth. while the other vessels of
the fleet have been spoken every few
days, it is universally believed that the
vessel with her 260 souls on board was
driven on the terrible reefs go numerous
inside Funk's island; that the sea
broke her up, and that she prob
ably sank Immediately with her fifty
seamen on deck and the 2lO seal fishers
below. The sea that swept the coast that
night was the worst ever witnessed by the
oldest sailors on board the other vessels.
No ship once getting in those terrible
breakers could possibly escape.
Capt. Jackman, commander of the i'll
fated vessel, was considered to be the
bravest skipper New Foundland ever pro-
duced. He was called 1.-THE king of the
sealing fleet until 1855, when, for the
first time in his life, he failed to catch any
seals. Last years bad lack again overlook
him. and he lost the steamer Resolute
near the same fatal Funk's island, but all
his crew escaped. Late the same season
he took command of the Eagle and with
in a few weeks she broke her shaft. She
was retitted and a month ago started with
the rest of the fleet on what is now felt
as her last voyage.
The majority are married and reside in
this city and vicinity, and all were in the
prime of life. The city is in mourning
to-day. This is the greatest calamity and
the most frightful loss of life in the mod
ern history of this unfortunate colony.

associates shortly at Wizards hotel,
where an informal gathering took place,

ment at the interior department, where
their commissions were handed to them,
and prescribed to the oaths of office adj
ministered.
On motion of Col. Morrison, Judge

Just below the Ebbitt house, and after an
inspection of the rooms parted with the
understanding that another meeting should
be held tomorrow for consultation. No

as chairman of the commission, Messrs.
Morrison, Bragg and SHOEMAKER, the
Democratic members. held a conference
and decided in view of Judge Cooley's
long experience and eminence as a Judge,
and in order to demonstrate to the country
that it was their object to promote har-
mony and unanimity in the board, that Col.
Morrison should propose, and Mr.. Bragg
second. Judge Cooley's nomination as
chairman.
The first business that will come before
the board after its organization will be the
fixing of the time and place for the hear
ing of questions to be submitted by NJ.
II. Smith, vice president of the Louisville
& Nashville railroad, and Virgil Powers,
general commissioner of pool rates for the
Southern Railway Steamship company.

These, if existent in a natural quantity,
and unvitiated by bile, play their part in
the functions Of digestion and assimila-
ton. But the artificial acid resulting
from the inability Of the stomach to con-
vert food received by it into s~ustcnance, is
the producer of fatulence and heartburn,
which are the most harrassing symptoms
of dyspepsia. The best carminative is
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Far more
effective is it than carbonate of soda. mag
nesia or other alkaline salts. The invari-
ably weaken the stomach without produ-
cling permanent benefit. No man or
woman chemically d%yspeptic, and conse-
quently nervous, can be in possession of
the full measure vigor allowed by nature.
Therefore. invigorate and regulate the
system, and by so doing protect it from

BEWARE OF IMPOsTURE.

1t is the bane of every charity that it
must necessarily encounter certain
amount of imposition, and the charity
which the generously disposed citizens
of st. Paul are disposed to extend to the
unfortunate is not free from annoyance
of this kind.
Many persons will refuse to give at
all, even where aid is urgent and de-
served, through fear of impOsture, and
others will extend their charity prOmis-
cuOusly, to undeserving and deserving
alike, in the fear that refusal to possible
impOStOl may result in suffering to
person in actual need. Either horn of
the dilemma is an unpleasant one, and
both can be readily avoided.
In cases where it is desired to assist
worthy applicant, but where no i'm
mediate means exist of determining
whether the restitution is actual or pre-
tended, an easy solution is to give the
applicant an order for the articles which
it is desired to give, this order to be pre-
scented to the relief society, which after
investigation to prevent impoSture, will
have it filled for the benefit of the appli-
cant and at the expense, of course, of
the almSgiver.
1t is sincerely to be hoped that not
one of the city's deserving poor-and
the GLOBES investigations have devel-
Oped the fact that many of them are
with us-shall go unclad or unfed. but
it is equally desirable that imposition
shall not put tax upon charity.

NEWT YEARS ISSUE.

In his article, "The Issue of Next
Year." in the current number of the
Forum, JAMES PARTON concludes with
this observation: 1.-The ideal Demo-
cratic party is composed of the many
who suffer and the few who think; and
such a party it measurably was in its
great day when the good JEFFERSON
was its chief. In all legitimate human
strife the real antagonists are interest
and principle. or, in truer words, the
supposed interest of part and the real
interest of the whole. The Republican
party has honestly and boldly taken in
charge the supposed interest of class,
leaving to its antagonist the conquering
force of principle, which is the interest
of ALL" There has, perhaps. never been
a better or a fairer statement of the
issue between the two leading parties in
this country than Mr.. PARTON has made
in these few words. He presents the
whole issue in nutshell. The Repub-
lican party, the party of protection to
monOpolies, has taken in charge the
supposed interest of the favored classes.
The Democratic party, the party of the
